THE WOMAN WHO CHANGED CINEMA FOREVER, GETS HER PLACE IN LONDON’S HISTORY WITH NEW STATUE!

London’s beloved hopeless romantic, Bridget Jones, brought to life by Renée Zellweger, has joined Leicester Square's Scenes in the Square trail!

Standing alongside icons like Harry Potter, Batman, Paddington and Mary Poppins, Bridget celebrates 25 years of breaking rom-com rules... diary in hand, witty as ever and perfectly imperfect.

From Helen Fielding’s groundbreaking newspaper columns to the 2001 blockbuster Bridget Jones’s Diary, Bridget redefined the romantic comedy heroine, making audiences laugh, cry, and believe that “just as we are” might be enough. Over four films -Diary, The Edge of Reason, Baby, and Mad About the Boy- the franchise has earned $900 million worldwide, earning Zellweger her first Oscar® nomination and capturing hearts across generations.
